it looks like a wonderful shop! the only fabric stores we have in Florida (that I know about anyways, lol) is Jo-Ann's Fabrics. they have a nice selection too but unfortunately for me it's a little farther from me then I can drive to most weeks :/

Heddy's Fabrics is a drive for us- but not as far as a Jo-Ann's- and curiously, Heddy's prices are better than Jo-Ann's on things like snaps and zippers and some fabrics. Heddy's selection of fancy fabrics Jo-Ann's cannot touch. Next time you are at a Jo-Ann's, ask at the cutting tables if there are any specialty fabric stores they could recommend. You might be surprised. The Jo-Ann's store here recommended I visit Heddy's...which turned out to be a very good thing!

I love the pictures with Frankie - so cute! What type of fabrics do you recommend; is there anything you have tried using before that was just to bulky or is it an anything can work type of situation? I have only just begun making clothes for my dolls and their bodies are Sooo tiny that I have stuck to the basic tulle, calicos, and other cotton prints - usually from the scrap bin or when fat quarters go on sale for $1 or so. Any suggestions for branching out?

If anyone plans on visiting Phoenix or Tucson Arizona, may I make a suggestion. Please check out SAS Fabrics. Especially the store in Phoenix it is HUGE. They have a lot of fabrics, trims an notions. The Tucson store was my mainstay. Every few months I would go to Phoenix to find stuff the Tucson store didn't.
